Green expands data center capacity | Green Datacenter AG, August 26, 2024

Lupfig, Switzerland (OTS) –

The leading Swiss data center provider Green is building another high-performance data center on the Metro Campus Zurich West. The demand for computing power has increased significantly.

Green today announces the start of construction of the fourth data center on the Metro Campus Zurich West. At the company’s headquarters, 5,526 m2 of new data center space is being created for secure and energy-efficient high-performance computing. This corresponds to 12 megawatts of power for the customer systems. The Zurich West 4 data center will be equipped with waste heat extraction in order to supply the region with climate-neutral heating heat.

Demand accelerates the start of construction

The demand for modern data centers is great. New technologies such as artificial intelligence and the digitalization push across all industries require more computing power and generate more data volume. At the same time, the outsourcing of company-owned data centers is increasing – many companies are dismantling their own data centers because they no longer offer sufficient capacity, flexibility and energy efficiency. “We are at the beginning of another wave of investment,” explains Roger Süess, CEO of Green, adding: “With our investment program, we will double our data center capacities again in the next two to three years. Modern and efficient data centers are an important prerequisite for companies to implement digitalization in a sustainable and future-proof manner.»

Thermal network-supported data centers

Green is aligning its data center architecture with high energy efficiency and future high-performance computing requirements. The Zurich West 4 data center will be equipped with waste heat extraction. The waste heat from the customer systems will flow into the new Naturenergie Eigenamt heat network, which IBB Energie AG operates. Green also uses natural cooling (freecooling) from the ambient air for cooling, thereby minimizing energy consumption. Room design, systems and controls correspond to Green’s latest energy-saving reference architecture. Photovoltaic systems also complement the concept.

Key data:

– High-performance data center of the latest generation

– Commissioning: 2026

– 5’526 m2 Datacenter-Fläche

– Around 2,000 m2 of office space

– Climate-neutral heating for the region

– 100% renewable energy in data center operation

Switzerland is an established business and scientific location that will rely even more heavily on digital innovation in the future in order to maintain its competitiveness. Switzerland is also attractive as a data location within Europe. The medium-term forecasts assume that demand for data center capacities will remain high. That’s why Green is already evaluating new locations for the next phase of its expansion.
